Allow InDesign files on Adobe Cloud Services accessible to InDesign Cross-Referencing feature
InDesign doesn't allow InDesign files stored on Adobe's cloud system to utilize its powerful cross-reference feature. All the files must be kept on the local drive in order to utilize cross referencing. Adobe is encouraging us to store all our files in their cloud system (formerly CC), but doing so removes the possibility from cross-referencing information or even cross-referencing page numbers in a table of contents in Long Document multi file projects like books.
Adobe support says "I would like to inform you that you may not cross references with the other InDesign cloud document , how ever we are…

Default Sync of All Settings Across CC Applications
Could you please enable the option to save all presets, windows, keyboard shortcuts, and all personalized settings, including Photoshop actions, brushes, and similar configurations, under the CC account? Ideally, this should be the default setting, so that after every installation, all settings for all applications, including color profiles and similar configurations, are fully copied. It's unbelievable that this hasn’t been working this way for a long time.
It would also be great if there was an option to export settings or share them across different accounts.

Import images linked locally to creative cloud library from within any CC app
Currently if I want to use a new asset that I've downloaded or saved to desktop the process looks like this:
- Navigate to CC desktop app
- Navigate to existing CC library or create a new one
- Drag and drop assets from desktop into library
- Go to InDesign (or whichever app)
- Navigate to appropriate library
- Drag asset from library to working document
What I'd like is:
- Place item from desktop in document
- Select the asset in the Links panel
- Click "import to current library"
- Asset is imported directly to the library and the link is automatically updated to the library version…

Espacio de trabajo universal y personalizado entre apps de Adobe
Hola Adobe 👋
Soy diseñadora gráfica y trabajo con Illustrator, Photoshop e InDesign a diario. Estas aplicaciones comparten muchos paneles (Capas, Alinear, Color, Transformar, etc.), por lo que me gustaría poder crear un espacio de trabajo personalizado y universal, que se sincronice entre las apps de Creative Cloud.
La idea es simple: si un panel existe en esa app, que se muestre en el lugar donde lo puse; si no, que lo ignore. Pero que respete mi estructura visual y estilo de trabajo, sin tener que volver a crear manualmente el espacio de trabajo en cada aplicación.
Además, cada vez…1 vote -

Change Asset Characteristics (Color, Style, Color Space) in Adobe Libraries
The Problem:
When building out an icon system in Adobe Libraries, you need to save a separate icon for each color variation, style variation (we have a filled style, line style, and multi-color style), and color space (digital vs. print). For our organization, there are 3 styles, 3 color variations for each, and 2 color spaces, meaning you need 18 different versions of a single icon. For large icon libraries, this results in a massive library and poor performance (icons with too many assets start to slow down and cause crashes).My Idea for a Solution:

import settings cross Windows/Mac
I have a Mac at my office and PC at home office, I have just exported the Mac Indd settings and wanted to import the same settings onto my PC, but it says Incompatible platform ....
We need to be able to sync all settings between Mac and PC - both the menu setup and custom Fine/Change queries, and also shortcuts if possible ..
The most easy way would be if it was synced in the cloud an I could choose if I wanted to sync the computer to the online settings

Make Libraries Panel Drag & Drop When Adding
Hi There,
I only use libraries for one client but am quickly discovering it's not that intuitive. It's great that libraries now isn't the default but when you need it, why can't you drag everything into it?
Obvious examples...
- You can't drag colours
- You can't drag text styles (paragraph or character)And regarding text, if you drag a text box, dragging it back should add the textbox with text etc. If you drag a text style onto an existing text box, it should only apply the style etc.
Just let us add anything to the library via drag…

Hi, i would like to have multiple team members working on the same InDesign file simultaneously. Now InDesign cloud doesn’t support it
Hi,
i would like to have multiple team members working on the same InDesign file simultaneously. Now InDesign cloud doesn’t support it, multi-user collaboration on a single file like some cloud-based apps.1 vote -
Restore several links to a Library
Create a function to update the links in the Libraries in the same way as for a local folder.
I had to move my libraries to a new Cloud following a change of plan. All the links no longer work. Even if I give the path to a link, INDD isn't able to restore the other links in the same library as it can in a local folder. I have thousands of links to restore manually!1 vote -
Autosave on Indesign !!!
Currently in much distress due to the lack of an autosave feature on indesign. We artists and students should not be trusted to manually save our work. We just leave it up at all times. I know this exists on Adobe applications, this needs to be a top priority. Too many lost files due to this. Praying for a miracle and a non-existent recovered file. CATER TO YOUR AUDIENCE!

Enable "relink to CC Library"
Enable "relink all images to a different CC Library" (relink to CC Library) , like you do on your hard drive (relink to folder)
I´m creating catalogues where I reuse a lot of images again and again,.
I copy images from one Library to a new Library.
Then I want to relink this new Library to a copy of my Indesign document.Earlier it was easy to link all images to a different folder, but in CC Librarys it do not work the same way, very frustrating.
And with the shutting down of synced files folders it’s very important to…

Add Permission based Security to Adobe Cloud Documents to permit Web Access and Editing without Download to Local Server
I wish to post a large number of INDD Documents as Master files to permit Access and Editing with Saving only to Cloud and not to local drive for those without permission. I propose a second level of permissioning such that we protect original master "template" documents from being downloaded or saved to users local drives unless granted specific permission. This way I can engage remote users to populate and prepare files without risk of losing our valuable IP.

Defined dynamic Elements (images, videos & Text....) editable by Google Sheets, API or online Editor
I like to design in Indesign a document (businesscard, flyer u.a) and others can edit every released text, imagefields by themself with a free online Indesign Editor or with API, Google Sheet or Airtable Database.
So if a new employee comes a other team without indesign can edit the business card or the campagne design with new images and textes. It should be possible to export Print-PDF and PNG/JPG for online campagnes.1 vote -
Make the CC Library popup notes legible
Using CC Libraries in InDesign 2022, 2023+ has been very helpful. However, I find that the notes added to the object are illegible. Doesn't matter what color I make the interface or which monitor or monitor resolution I set, when I hoover my mouse over the library object the pop out note text is a light grey on a grey background and difficult to read.
Can we had some user level adjustment so those library items can be zoomed or to change them so the text is black with a white background while we are hovering over them?
Thank you.

Invite To Edit for InDesign
Just wondering if we might one day see an Cloud Based Invite To Edit feature similar to the Illustrator and Photoshop feature for InDesign? I assume this might come when there is a iPad capable version for iPad? While it is not needed all the time I sometimes have to share a file to be edited by internal people in a company and it would be great if it could be shared and collaborated on so there is one master version of the file instead of sharing and then having an outdated file after they have done updates or changes.

Add snippets to CC libraries
I often have several items grouped together with a text box (like a png image used as a background for a textbox). I often need to use that group multiple times, so I usually make snippets out of them so I can easily place the whole group repeatedly. It would be FANTASTIC if I could store snippets in the CC library. I don't even really bother using CC libraries most of the time because the thing I most often need to place between documents are snippets.

Place Linked IDMS
It would be awesome if we could link a IDMS file or be able to add a InDesign file to CC Libraries and be able to place that into another InDesign file. This would be great for reusing pieces of text or layout that occasionally gets updated in multiple documents. When place the IMDS there could be an option to keep the link so if the version in the library is updated so is the placed version or to place a copy that does not stay associated with the one in the Library.
I know it is possible to place…
